My Story
So, I’m that person at a party who’s missing from the crowd, chatting quietly in a corner. Big groups drain me, but one-on-one? That’s my jam. Moving to Canada wasn’t on my wishlist, but it shook things up for me—radio shows, poetry slams, finally ticking off that writing course at UofT. I used to think being vulnerable was weakness, but turns out, it’s where real growth happens. Dreams sneak up and surprise you.
My Work
Creative Writing & Thinking Workshops - I run playful writing workshops for kids, teens, adults, and even parents—raising creative kids starts with us.
Writing for Healing & Self-Discovery - My sessions use writing as a way to heal and find your voice. It’s about the journey, not perfection.
Intimate, Supportive Groups - Small, cozy groups where you can laugh, share, and feel safe—no pressure, just honest connection.
Permission to Monkey Around - We mix giggles with deep thinking. Play is just as important as focus in my workshops.
Connection First, Content Second - I believe in building trust before teaching. Questions matter more than answers, and love beats perfection.
